Bells have been used throughout the ages to accompany dance, to provide comfort and to warn of possible danger. The Chinese were the first to control the pitch or note of a bell, making it possible for them to play tunes. Soon bells were being used to accompany worship. On New Year’s Eve the bells in Buddhist temples are rung 108 times, once for each of the 108 worldly desires.
In the East bells have become very important and are often decorated with significant symbols. For centuries, tuned bells have been suspended in homes and temples to ward off evil and attract good luck and prosperity. Woodstock Temple Bells are inspired by these ancient bells and work in harmony with the wind to create gentle, soothing tones.
This chime is designed to hang from a string loop, rather than an O-ring.
This chime was designed with a removable windcatcher that can be taken to a trophy shop, printer or jeweler to be engraved or silk-screened.
Sent from Heaven,
God has given you the task
of looking after me.
Shelter me under your wings
and protect me every day.
Angel of God
my guardian dear
to whom God's Love commits me here.
Ever this day be at my side
to light and guard
to rule and guide.
Amen
When Woodstock designed the Chimes of Polaris they were handcrafted for superior musical performance. It is hand-tuned to a universal, pentatonic (five-note) scale and act in concert with the wind to create random patterns of wonderful sound. It will also harmonise beautifully with all the other Encore Collection windchimes.

Polaris is part of three different constellations. It is the end of the handle in The Little Dipper and also part of Ursa Minor (the smaller bear). It is also the “jewel” in a semicircle of stars that make up a constellation called “The Engagement Ring”. Because Polaris appears to be motionless, it is used in navigation and is associated with a steadfast nature.
